You might be referring to the posix schema stuff. Check out http://blogs.sun.com/terrygardner/entry/ldap_as_a_naming_service
which has a pointer to the bigadmin ldap naming service guide.

I currently have configured a new server with Sun Commsuite 5 and I

Our users have previously only used an older version of Calendar.
However we are trying to migrate our various server clusters to a
system that will be much less headache to administrate.
I know that password authentication can be accomplished via the LDAP
scheme in DSEE6, as per the 'user authentication' choices in the
delegated administrator panels for each user. Unfortunately, when
looking through the various user options, I do not see anything
about specifying a home directory, or any of the more important /etc/
passwd information. My question is, is there a way to make that
information available through the LDAP server that we already have
in place through dsee6? I would much rather use this existing LDAP
server to serve all of the information that we currently have in
several copies of /etc/passwd across our server cluster.
Yes, the server cluster system that we have in place was made by
somebody with no concept of scalability.
Also, if there is a better way to do this, I am certainly open to
suggestions or comments. Also, the server clusters are all running
a linux variant, although that should not matter as the information
we need to make available is standard /etc/passwd info.
Thank you much in advance!
